No all women PPV, focal point feuds that were priority over Universal and World titles.....and most importantly. ...no woman on any outside talk show that any casual fan would watch.

Yeah iT rEaLlY dIdN't :heston

Yeah because it’s not like Charlotte and Sasha banks were main eventing before Ronda came or anything

And where'd it go from there? Like I said....after she left, so did the supposed revolution.

Pay attention.

Just because Ronda brought in some MMA viewers doesn't mean her run was better than this entire year for Bayley.

She didn't bring in MMA fans....she wasn't exactly a fan favourite in MMA.

She brought in mainstream publicity and casuals.....you know the actual important things.

Bayley? Just because she was good in the rasslin bubble....doesn't mean a thing when it comes to moving the needle.

Guess what? If this years Bayley was around when Ronda was around. ...she'd actually maybe headline a show.

Bayley/Sasha at HIAC should have headlined regardless. People might look more favorably on that show if it did.

It was a great ass beatin' but as far as an actual match, their Clash match was much better. Sasha/Bayley was the best match on that show. Also Roman/Jey opened the show.

Sadly, the rasslin bubble fans is all that is left now. Proves your point as to why the needle isn't moving.

Bayley/Sasha probably one of my MOTY tbh. I loved it and waited forever for the match lol.

Lmao that’s why the fans were cheering when she got destroyed by Charlotte at survivor series. It’s never a good sign when fans cheer a babyface getting destroyed.

Oh a smark crowd......totally represents casual fans and people she brought in :harden2

You pick and choose outliers and still come off sounding wrong.

Nah you just make shit up and act like Ronda was some lord and savior. Maybe other people started watching because she came from MMA but she’s still nowhere near on the level of the other top women. Her one year run is the same as AEW. People were interested at the beginning because she was the new toy but they would have probably lost interest sooner rather than later.

Now I can’t say this for sure because she didn’t stick around past her rookie year but I’m willing to bet that would’ve been the case.

You're reaching.

She moved the needle, no one has since.

It's that simple.

Name anyone who has been on her level lately? Sasha was on the mandalorian ffs and still hasn't been on anything outside of WWE to plug that or her brand.

Interest in woman's wrestling waned in her absence....that's a fact.
